Alibris enjoys a generally positive reputation among customers, particularly for its wide selection of used books at competitive prices and reliable shipping. Many customers appreciate the timely delivery and the ability to track orders, contributing to overall satisfaction. However, concerns arise regarding the variability in book conditions, with some items not meeting expectations, and delays in shipping for urgent needs. Additionally, the separate shipping fees for each book can deter purchases. Despite these issues, the platform remains a favored choice for many due to its extensive inventory and user-friendly website.

Fast and to the point. Easy to move around the website!
Fast and efficient. Shipping was almost as much as the books, though.
Very easy to order. I really enjoyed your simple and quick order format. Thank you. I will recommend you to others.
I am so excited to receive this CD. I have wanted it for a very long time and just tried to find it again one more time.
I love Alibris! It's the only place I shop for books!
I love it but shipping is expensive
I trust book condition descriptions on Alibris, which really matters to me.
Your website is fairly easy to navigate. Thank you. J C
This was relatively easy to navigate.
Great website. My local bookstore recommended the site to me. Thank you.
I ordered another book of the same series that was listed as available and it wasnt. I was told the the money was returned to the source. I cant find it so far.When i tried to mpay for this item,the same payment screen kept reoccuring so i dont know if ive paid for the same item multiple times. Id like to talk to someone in person on the phone. Is this available?
You saved me enough $ that I could ditch Amazon.
Amazon = Evil
Easy to find books and great prices which are clearly stated on each book listing
Alibris has always been my go-to for the selection and service. Keep it up!
Alibris is always great. Super easy to use and find items.
2 books in cart only one purchase completed. Reviewed twice and it there were 2 books. Now I'm doing it all again. Bad experience
So fast, price fair, clean design, easy to navigate
Way cheaper then the US copy! And supposedly is the same content which is great!
The web site is easy to use. It would be nice to know how long it would take to get the books
So far so good - easy processing - hope shipping & product quality are as described.
At last. Cracked the confusion over PayPal payments.
Apparently, they have to be made in United States dollars rather than Pounds Sterling. That's OK.
I will carry onwards. I don't need to close my account now.
Site is easy to use. Shipping prices were slightly higher than I would've liked, but overall good experience
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.
Answer: Hi Dennis, That depends on where the seller is located and where your deliver address is as well. Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. If you send us the details with your order number in an email to [email protected] we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Hi Valerie, If you have had a problem with your Visa or PayPal transactions on our site, please let us know the details at [email protected] so that we can investigate for you. Thank you for your question. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: HI Zoila, Delivery timeframes within the States are usually between 3 and 8 days, but it depends on where the seller is that is shipping the item to you. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at [email protected] with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Really Michael, contact you directly? Why should we have to. There is a bad trend here. Seems MANY of us contact you and you DONT respond
Answer: I saw the fake stellar reviews and did not dig deeper. I til... I had an issue. Initially, I wanted to give a small seller some business after COVID and the site looked really good. What a big mistake that was! Shame on this outfit.
